Abstract

This degree work presented the design and implementation of a monitoring system in real time using a Raspberry Pi 3 model B+, for the location of public vehicles. The operation of global positioning systems was investigated, the both hardware and software considerations for design and implementation of the entire system. Tests were carried out where the operation of the system was verified and with the analysis of the coverage range, the places where the system worked in a reliable way were determined in an optimal way. The Raspberry Pi 3 model B+, a GPS antenna U – blox 7 and a GSM modem were part of the portable electronic prototype; which was placed in a case of the development card for its portability; therefore, the location server was designed through the collaborative work of an online platform and the storage system allowed to obtain a digital representation of vehicles for public use. Later, the implementation of the device was carried out in public service units. The test of functioning of the monitoring system was achieved by contrasting the coordinates and trajectories of both the real-time monitoring system and those of the professional team Garmin and those of the Google My Maps online tool. Finally, an analysis of the optimal coverage range was made by using the coverage maps of the Claro cellular operator. It is concluded that the real-time monitoring system performed the tracking according to the specifications and requirements raised. It is recommended to place the GPS modules and GSM in places where they have a good line of sight for its correct operation.
